Equality & Diversity

People living in care homes are all individuals with their own beliefs, cultures, religions, likes and dislikes. They have not given up any of their rights when they enter the home and the home must value these clients as people.

Description

People living in care homes have not given up any of their rights when they enter the home. Consent must be obtained before care is carried out or medication given.
